The Book of Boba Fett | 1x1 Chapter 1: Stranger in a Strange Land | Reaction / Commentary

[@Josh_Lee_Henderson]

Boba's skin looks so rough because of the acidic digestive fluids that he was covered with from being in the belly of the sarlacc. That's one of the reasons he so frequently goes into the bacta tank

[@Yianni-pk3br]

Huh I always wondered why he looked like that. Thanks 👍

[@staffan-]

Really liked how this series developed our view on Tusken culture!

[@ronweber1402]

Hard to think that we would ever feel sympathetic to the Sand People, not to mention some other things coming up, yet here we are.

[@brettholcomb3763]

Omega from the Bad Batch is basically Boba's fraternal twin. It will be interesting if that ever is a plot point that is explored.

[@captaindc3889]

I may have wanted more out of this series, but I appreciate the good moments it has

[@__Sauron_]

Yeah true.

[@benjaminroe311ify]

One thing some folks don't realize is that he lived with the Tuskens likely for 4 to 5 years

[@oneironaut420]

The blue guy playing the keyboards is Max Rebo. His band also included Droopy McCool and Sy Snootles, the singer with the long snout with lips on it.

[@mrborgeusborg1541]

Emme a fan of Max Rebo? I aprove. :) And yes, in the end the kid/teenager took the credit but the leader knew.

[@branthemuffin5872]

I absolutely loved this show. Maybe it’s because I go into shows without fantasy booking them prior but I thoroughly enjoyed BOBF

[@Linerunner99]

I hear that. I want to see the story they want to tell... not the one I want them to tell.

[@raymondamador1487]

I've never understood how any of these creatures can see anything outside their direct vision. Those helmets would block their vision. Good eye, Emme.

[@joshuawells835]

In the contexts of this show, yes, daimyo is the title used for the ruler of a territory on Tatooine. In reality, daimyo is a title of Japanese nobility, referring to the great lords and vassals of the Shogun. Samurai swore loyalty to their daimyo and the Emperor.

[@escribahaydee]

I loved TBOBF I like how his character evolves and the love The Tuskens get.

[@samuelboyer8699]

The soundtrack in this series went so hard!

[@davidbergfors6820]

3:08 some years prior to this, an improvised scene in a totally different show (Community, I believe) predicted this note for note.

[@JeffMeyers-zm2lh]

He looks the way he does from the digestive enzymes of the Sarlacc. So this opening is a few day's after he fell in in Return of the Jedi. All the flashbacks occur over the next five years to where season 1 of The Mandalorian occurs. All Tusken Raiders have Gaffi sticks. It's there primary weapon. And yes it is what he uses in The Mandalorian. The tank is a bacta tank. bacta is a healing fluid/water in the Star Wars universe.

[@blujay_1743]

The blue guy is named Max Rebo :D

[@IggyStardust1967]

I know this got a lot of crap from a lot of fans, but let's look back at history: Boba Fett was intended to be a throw-away character, which is why he had such an unceremonious end in Return of the Jedi. Lucas completely underestimated the amount of love the character would get from fans. Lucas even said that "Had I known how much people were going to embrace the character, I would have written him a better death. But think about that for a second.... if Lucas HAD written a "better death" for Boba, this show (and his appearances in The Mandalorian) couldn't have happened. It had been speculated for years (and even some stories were written (now in Legends) how Boba survived the Sarlaac pit. This series actually had a good way to explain that, and that couldn't have been possible if Lucas had given him a more "fitting death". Myself, I loved the series, and I understood how it was done, and why it was done that way. It would have felt kinda weird for the first half of the series to be about his survival, when we'd already known there was "current time" stuff going on. So, flipping back and forth, while maybe it could have been done better, still worked well enough for me to enjoy it. I'm sorry that others didn't.

[@IggyStardust1967]

Also, at 2:50 - Look at it THIS way: Boba is being "reborn" here. And yes, birth is a pretty disgusting process. But fortunately, Boba's armour DOES seal around his head, and provides oxygen for an undetermined amount of time. 3:25 - From what I've noticed previously, there's a "screen" on the inside of the helmet, that displays what's going on outside of it. So, Mandalorians aren't actually looking through those slits in the helmet. 10:15 - Emme, that is Max Reebo. Originally created for Return of the Jedi. While he WAS on Jabba's sail barge, he somehow survived that incident, and is now working here. 15:40 - That, is an awesome tribute to the legend of Ray Harryhausen. The man who perfected "Stop Motion" photography in movies. It's actually very similar to the Kraken from the original Clash of the Titans (I recommend that movie, BTW), though not quite to the same scale.

[@christopherstanfield1558]

I really did enjoy this show. Hopefully we’ll see Boba again someday soon.

[@tofersiefken]

I'm so glad you've made it to this series now. I really enjoyed all the flashbacks to fill in what has happened between Return of the Jedi and when we meet Boba in The Mandalorian.

[@hideflen6078]

This show watered my crops and cleared my skin, my only real complaint is that I felt it could have used one more episode… I’m so glad you are getting to this! Boba really has been through a lot and he deserves a chill life for once.

[@bobbymartin440]

Emme-I'm really happy to see You watching this Series! I LOVED it! See You for Episode 2! BTW-You're RIGHT! The Music in these Star Wars Series is FANTASTIC!

[@Irish37]

I'm happy to read in the comments how many other people love TBOBF. I think it's a masterful series, and I love it. If you haven't seen them yet, you will; but the usual gang of Star Wars trolls can't shut up about how much they hate the series, how much it sucks, and blah-blah-blah. Don't listen to them. I'm looking forward to seeing your reaction to the remaining episodes. Enjoy!

[@nintenmetro]

Addie Counts would agree.

[@shrubbinthepub3176]

As a Star Wars megafan, i didnt love the Boba Fett show... but i love Emme's reaction to it!

[@stevethemagicninja]

TBOBF Is as western as Star Wars gets. Many episodes were directed by renowned western director, Robert Rodriguez. The blue musician's name is Max Rebo. Him and 'Droopy' McCool rock

[@jasonknight1085]

A lot of people badmouth it, but I really enjoyed the "Dances with Massifs" flashback parts. "Man reacts like that he's likely never seen a man go native. That or he's seen one too many." -- Bioshock Infinite.

[@roystoyscomics1361]

The other guy was Cobb Vanth, a.k.a. The Marshall, played by actor Timothy Olyphant. 😅 As far as the Gamorreans go...I dub thee Sir Loin of Beef and Sir Pork Chop...lol 😋 The "dog" is a Tusken Raiders Massif. They domesticated some of these reptiles for guard duty. Sand People believe in delegation I guess...lol 😆 The four armed reptilian creature is a Sand Beast. Native to Tattoine. 😮

[@auntvesuvi3872]

Thanks, Emme! 🦎 I love this show... gives real substance to Tusken culture... plus some surprises coming. #EmmeReacts #StarWars #TheBookOfBobaFett

[@jacksonconley5117]

Great to be here for more Star Wars content. Plus the dog is cute.💖👍✨🐶🌌

[@AwesomeJedi182]

Youre officially so deep into star wars that you recognise max rebo. There is no escape now. Welcome to the deep end 😂

[@scalefree]

In Fuedal Japan a Daimyo was more like a feudal landlord of a territory under the authority of the Shogun, supreme general of the whole land. Not necessarily a crime lord although in his case it is because the population he manages are all criminals.

[@davidbergfors6820]

1:05 Little did she know the studio had other plans, ending up dedicating 2 of the episodes in this show to completely undo the end of Mando Season 2.

[@target844]

The theme music for Boba is heavily inspired by a tune in a 1980s Swedish child fantasy film called "Ronja Rövardotter", "Ronia, the Robber's Daughter". Ludwig Göransson that with them in Swedish and have for sure hear the tune. There is a side-by-side comparison of them in kzbin.info/www/bejne/p3OZqp-YpL-lrNU The video contains no spoiler only the tune and a screenshot from this episode.

[@tanisparker1282]

That kid totally took credit 😂

[@mikebrown7799]

Hi Emme, so you are at The Book of Boba Fett already!🙂Great to start this on a Friday! I thought Boba's appearence was from the digestive juices from the creature in the Sarlacc Pit. His armor probably slowed the process. C3PO is a protocol droid. Great reactions to your first episode, Emme!!!!🎬👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽Looking forward to you doing the rest of the series!

[@Linerunner99]

Things get choked out by chains a lot on Tatooine...

[@barkingmonkee]

I'm a little curious to know how much of the town they built as sets and how much was cgi. It seems like it was a pretty ambitious undertaking.

[@jimideth]

Hooray Boba!!!

[@TheGagabond]

Следующий эпизод просто бомба будет! Книга бобы Фета хороший сериал

[@Samminish]

Emme, love your vids, thanks for starting the series .. .. As all of Star Wars is based loosely on Samurai lore that George Lucas adored, a DAIMYO is a provincial governor/lord of the most prominent (samurai) family .. .. I'm sure you've seen THE LAST SAMURAI, but if you haven't, that would make a fun video for ya .. .. GREAT WEEKEND!!

[@GattedGazoo91]

I named the Gammorreans Gork and Mork when i watched this.

[@raybernal6829]

'What on Earth is that?" 😂 emme this is Tatooine 😉

[@coopdevilla5447]

This show is great, lots of people dont like it but I thought it was a wild ride.

[@2005yzfr1]

all the questions

[@mr.fancipants6639]

Thank you!

[@americantragedies]

i like BOBF it reminds me of star wars comics when I was a kid.

[@steve8510]

Awesome series

[@timothywhitfield8785]

Loved this series.... I could not wait for you to get to it. Huge Fett fan since the 1980s!!! They get really into him, and also how people change over time.

[@OuterRimPride]

He is the crime lord… I’m not sure he commits any though. Or orders any.

[@kevingt7777]

The kid that played the tusken is Jimmy kimmels nephew

[@calvinishmuel2413]

This show is alright, had my issues with the character of boba(kinda disappointed me … like he was still cool … maybe I have to watch it again but I remember feeling like he was a bit of a pushover while having cool moments here and there) I do remember fennec being pretty awesome in this show. I already don’t remember much. Maybe if I watch it again I’ll change my perspective. I seem to enjoy this reactors commentary more than most so I’ll refresh my memory on here.

[@nathandts3401]

Weirdly structured show, but it gets a lot of unjustified hate. Doesn't add much, but it's harmless. Solo is similar.

[@pandaman1677]

I didn’t love this Series. But worth watching once

[@tiago_s_]

*Look how they massacred my boy*

[@redtornado1337]

Godfather reference, FTW! :D

[@ThomasKnip]

The series got a lot of criticism, some of it justified. But I actually like episode 1 thru 3. And ... two of the latter ones. 😇

[@icoborg]

some?

[@ThomasKnip]

@@icoborg "Some" defines an infinite number between one and "oh my god, I've had enough of this...". 😄

[@Teamrat]

16:07 What on earth?

[@theinquisitor2792]

I think you skipped all the boba fett episodes in clone wars. Watching his clone wars arcs informs the decisions he makes in this show a lot

[@__Sauron_]

Here we go……

[@hakon5473]

Boba Fett is severely nerfed in this series sadly. Although i appreciate the series it could have been more.

[@Luciphell]

This series has the very real ability to diminish one's appreciation for StarWars as a property. I would suggest skipping it and just watching "The Man Of Recaps" summary of it. That way you get all the positives of the show(which there are few) without having to suffer through the rest of the show.

[@MrKevinFHaney]

I've already seen this and reactions now I can't wait for the next one haha wit u

[@MrKevinFHaney]

Whatever was in that funny-looking carrot it was some kind of wake me up super juice

[@MrKevinFHaney]

Hello there America and the rest of the world

[@MrKevinFHaney]

Gross gross No this is cool

[@redtornado1337]

Wooteedee! :D
